Thought I'd post a few of my keepers. I have more I will post later when I Image them. Most if not all these have already been shown here and some of you were previous owner's. These probably don't do anything for you guys but I absolutely love them. I've grown fond of nice looking eagles on bars so I think I'll keep my eye out for some more. I have sold some bars with eagles on them b/c they just didn't do it for me. I've also started enjoying bars with nice colorful Tonage so I may also play with those a little as well. Some bars I kept just b/c I haven't seen them before and there are some bars I Plan on hoarding & purchasing every single one that pops up. Not gonna say which those are and will not even show pics of them until time is right 
. As you can see I haven't gave up collecting but I've tightened my requirements bars must need to make it into my stash.
Here are Some cool bars I Just like & you don't see often. I Would sell them for right price but for now will hang onto them. I picked up the 1/10 oz JM From Gecko at a bargain price of $130 credit on a trade. He recently sold another on eBay for $200+. The Credit Suisse & JM Plat are from eBay. They were both Bargains.
The look of this bar reminds me of an old coin. Someone must have carried it around or something. I picked this up from a guy in England. He said he had Serial number 150 as well he was gonna sell but has yet to list it. This was months ago, I wonder if he decided to keep it. I may drop him a line to see if I can snatch it up. This cost me $65. After I purchased it the under-bidder emailed me stating he wasn't able to get his last bid in & asked if I would consider selling it to him for a tidy profit.
Some Eagles. The eagle on bar far left didn't really strike me but couple that with the color and I Couldn't give it up. I picked it up on eBay around $15. I had to purchase a lot of 12 1 oz silver art bars to get The Colorful American Eagle bar from a seller on eBay. I've had many of these and already sold them off long ago for around $20/ea but None of them were as colorful. I like the eagle on that. The refinemet bar I believe is an eBay pickup, Don't remember the price. I also have a 10 Gram just like it but its currently listed on eBay. I only needed one of these bars and the 10g bar has some unattractive tarnish. Back when Gecko was collecting he was bidding against me on that bar I think. The silver eagle bar is pretty common. I like the eagle and figured it would only sell around $15 if listed on eBay so I kept it. Selling the 1/2 oz to match it b/c eagle didn't strike me as nice as this one.
The Pamp doesn't have any color but it snuck its way in the pic. Its a Rare bar that I picked up from Gecko as well. The Engelhard I kept b/c it has my Birth year as the serial, It has a little yellow on it. Always looking for bars with 1980 serial if you run across any. The Crown Mint & Ronald Reagan bar also came from Gecko, Thanks Phil!
Some poured type bars with my newly acquired JM Leaf ingot I picked up on eBay last week for $155. The other JMM bar I got in a private deal for $100. The 15 Gram ABC bar I Think is cool as elmo. Don't remember what I paid for it. Most likely an eBay purchase. 20g Degussa came from eBay seller in UK. Cost me around $50 and included a nifty case with fitted slot for bar. Gecko recently inquired about it to match his Degussa gold ingots but respectfully declined when I offered him a price, I'm kinda glad he did. 1/2 Oz Crown bar I picked up few weeks ago on eBay for like $12. keeping it b/c of the low price and I kinda like it. I also have a 3/4 oz bar like it but listed it on ebay, It has a Really week strike so I didn't care for it. The Engelhard 100G bar I Picked up from a seller in UK again. Cost me around $200, I've yet to see another.
This is in Top running as one of my Fav ingots. I was ecstatic when I won it on eBay. Went Much cheaper than I had expected. I put a Snipe on it of $500, If I remember correctly I got it around $95. I Don't imagine there are many of them floating around out there.
Well, That's it for now. Hope I Didn't bore you too much with my ramblings. I get excited over these little boogers.

Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......

That 5 oz JM canada bar with the maple leaf is "Too Cool" ! That ABC bar is also a very nice eye appealing piece.
